The Evolution of Ideals: The American Dream and Its Impact on Literature and Culture
Ch. Rajaniprashanth
Abstract:
American literature is exceptional due to numerous national and international literary and philosophical trends that significantly enhance and fortify its diverse forms. The tendencies and movements such as frontiers, transcendentalism, enlightenment, puritanism, expressionism, and the Adamic myth significantly influenced American history and literature. The founders of these groups were either literary figures or philosophers who significantly advanced American literature. It is essential to acknowledge the transcendentalists, who, through various forms of American literature, introduced novel and inventive rhetorical contributions, so laying the groundwork for future generations. Every movement possesses a distinct contribution.
